About this map

The Middle Fork Selway River carves through the heart of the Nez Perce National Forest, defining a landscape where wilderness management and recreational access meet. This area, later designated as the Selway Wild and Scenic River, features infrastructure like the Fenn Ranger Station and a nearby Radio Facility, illustrating the mid-century administrative presence in the Idaho backcountry.

Remote ridges and peaks, including Goddard Point and West Fork Point, dominate the topography, while the river corridor supports essential services such as a Gaging Station and the O'Hara Campground. Long-established routes are represented by a dedicated Pack Trail winding through the drainage of Swiftwater Creek and Goddard Creek, showing the traditional methods of traversing these steep Nez Perce National Forest lands before modern road expansion.
